Dante's Infeno is good

The book or the game?

The book

I do find it weird how a random guy came up with an interpretation of hell and the RCC simply adopted it.

Dante Aligheri wasn't just a random guy. Nor was he a particularly revered figure for his day.

I do remember seeing a post equating him to a modern /r9k/ shitposter or /b/tard.

Which I find to be uncharitable.

But amusing.

the divine comedy intrigues me, I want to read it

Supposed to be super long.

I don't doubt that, but its bound to be at least a not utter shite read

If you like translated works from archaic language then yea

he wasnt a random guy

he was a (lay) theologian and philosopher among other things

dude was hella talented and smart

@Deleted User shouldn't be too bad, had to read stuff like beowulf for uni

Vespers and benediction to spiritually dab on prots. <:dab2:549526443638521858>

Divine Comedy was meant to roast certain people using the idea of Hell as an allegorical framework, it was just so popular at the time it kinda morphed into an easy way for people to express the idea of hell/ push their own actual ideas about hell

Dante himself I don't think actually believed real hell was like that

yes

but the Church doesn't accept Inferno as dogma

Definitely not lol

hello i hate women

Hello, I hate women.*

Put some effort into your posts, fren.

no

This upsets me. <:FeelsBad:569917196671778846>

The Guy died for our sins

Alright lads

I’m still awake

And it’s story time

I present to you the god of feminists

This here is miss Margaret Atwood

Look into her eyes, she loves the patriarchy

So much so that she wrote this fanfic

And now if you notice her history, she’s once married and her current **partner** she is not even married too

Now she’s not only not even married to him, but she’s never had kids with him and with him instead having two kids of his own
